Legacy Secure SL updates - available in New Jersey beginning December 8, 2008
Legacy Secure SL will be updated in New Jersey beginning Monday, December 8, 2008. This survivorship life policy from Lincoln Benefit Life helps ensure the integrity of a customer's financial legacy while the Estate Liquidity Rider gives the owner the flexibility to adjust the policy to reflect changing priorities - including the option of receiving a partial or full premium refund at certain points in time if the owner decides the coverage is no longer required.1,2
Summary of Changes
- Guaranteed COIs now based on 2001 CSOs
- Premiums and COIs continue to age 120
Important Information
The standard cut-off for LBL products using the 1980 CSO tables is December 1, 2008, with all sales suspense requirements received by December 15, 2008. These cut-offs were set to help ensure that 1980 CSO policies are issued and released in 2008. In New Jersey, we will make an exception and continue to accept applications for Legacy Secure SL using 1980 CSO tables through December 8, 2008; however, we still must receive all sales suspense requirements by December 15, 2008 and the policy must be issued in 2008.

The updated Lincoln Benefit Life Illustration Software, including the New Jersey state approval, will be available for download from accessallstate.com beginning December 8, 2008. The discontinued version of Legacy Secure SL will no longer be available on the illustration software as of December 15, 2008.
State Approvals
Legacy Secure SL is now approved in all states except Montana.
